At the bottom of the Baltic.

I think I read once that the materials and effort that went into her and her sister carrier B could have produced about 50 Type VII or about 25 Type XXIs.

Wasnt it Mitcher who wrote that the ideal carrier task force would have four carriers, eight heavy escorts and two dozen destroyers. Any more and the sky was too crowded, any less and the TF couldn’t defend itself.

By the time she woils have been patio all, 1943, not ever commissioned, the Japanese had lost four big fleet carriers, the Americans four, and the British six.

OK, now that looks like a great auto-correction!

...the Soviets took her from where she had been abandoned ( remember , she wasn't finished ). Then they practiced bombing her with different types of bombs finally strapping down a few thousand pounders on the deck and blew a hole clean through her . She now sits in the Black Sea !Or the Sea of Okotsk!...

According to the article in Wikipedia-I know, a large grain of salt may be necessary-she was found in the Baltic, off the Hel peninsula near Danzig's bay:

That would make more sense that the Soviets left her in the Baltic.  Since she was scuttled, and captured and salvaged, in Stettin, it would have been far more effort to tow her to the Black Sea, let alone the Sea of Okhotsk halfway round the globe.

You and me both.....all the girders under the flight deck and radars....going to be more words and language improvement than the Big ED set on the 1/72 Gato.

But should be nice when done.

I may have bit off a little more then I can chew,we'll see.
